Summary:
The 21133 zip code area is home to three elementary schools: Hernwood Elementary, Randallstown Elementary, and Church Lane Elementary. These schools serve students from prekindergarten through 5th grade and are part of the Baltimore County Public Schools district.
Among the three schools, Randallstown Elementary stands out as the top performer, consistently outperforming the district and state averages in both Mathematics and English Language Arts proficiency across all grade levels. In particular, Randallstown Elementary's 3rd grade English Language Arts proficiency rate of 67.2% is significantly higher than the district's 47.3% and the state's 50%. Church Lane Elementary also demonstrates strong 4th grade Mathematics performance, with a 50% proficiency rate compared to the district's 32.9% and the state's 34.9%.
However, all three schools face challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates of 28%, which are significantly higher than the state and district averages. Additionally, the schools serve economically disadvantaged communities, with 57.24% to 62.5% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. While the schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, their overall academic performance, particularly in Mathematics and English Language Arts, tends to underperform the district and state averages, with some exceptions at the grade level. Understanding the factors that contribute to the success of Randallstown Elementary and addressing the chronic absenteeism and socioeconomic challenges faced by the schools could be key to improving overall academic outcomes in the 21133 zip code area.
